So one tried a night flight it was not successful to say the least! All common sense left me instead of using the map to navigate back to me I flew straight into a steel fence. Oh well a great experience and lesson learnt but one is without a drone for the time being. I am tempted to buy new as Argos is selling the drone now for £369.
I have damaged the gimbal and top cover.
Does anyone know where and how much repairing my mini 2 would be?
Or, if you’re not in a rush you could wait 10 days or so for the Black Friday sales as DJI often reduce the prices of their non-latest-model stuff so that £369 price might get cheaper still.
Thank you. I’ve just messaged them. I think I contacted them for a cracked motor arm and I was quoted 120 but I got it done for half that. We will see what they quote.
The gimbal has snapped. I don’t know what the parts are called but the top horseshoe stabiliser has snap on one side and the opposite side has come out. Camera still works.
Just this bit? If there are no errors in the Fly app, and it is just this bit that has snapped, it is quite a straightforward DIY repair - if you like that kind of thing.
You don’t need the whole gimbal, just the arm. If you can find that you can bring the price down considerably. All I can find after a quick search is the whole gimbal, so price reflects that.
I lost a Mini 2 and battery in the river Clyde earlier this year. I had care refresh but obviosly nothing to send back. Spoke nicely to Dji and they sold me a new Mini 2 and new battery for £265. I thought that was good!
